When connected to the power supply, the docking station can charge up to three qIDmini Readers in parallelwith a full current rate (500 mA).The USB device port allows to connect the docking station to a PC to upgrade the firmware of the readers whenneeded. The USB port alone (without the Power supply) allows to charge a single Reader (due to the input USB currentlimitation). To this purpose, insert the Reader into the slot in the center.The docking station can be also wall mounted using the provided hooks.Two LEDs positioned near the side power jack and the USB connector indicate respectively the charging status (greenwhen charging), and the communication status (orange when connected).Fig. 1.1: qDock RA0005 qIDmini docking stationIntroduction - qDock Technical Information Manual 5
